HOEY or HOY Sligo - Info available

[greenpaula]

Hi Lulibell
Sorry I've been a bit slow answering - I lost the info, or to be honest, had not filed it properly.
Anyway have had a good look through and unfortunately no Michael Hoey/Hoy at all nor Catherine Hoey in the right time frame.

Glad you have made some progress Gaucho - more than I have on the Sligo Hoeys

Many thanks for looking!

I thought I'd share this Hoye/ Hoey marriage:
Marriage in Ahamlish Parish
26 Nov 1884
Husband
James Donellan (Donlon)
Innismurray
RC
Father James

Wife
Catherine Hoye (Hoey)
Innismurray
RC
Father Thomas

Witnesses
John Lynch
Anne O'Connor

Catherine Hoye was born c 1860.

I'd be interested if any one has a Thomas Hoye (Hoey), possible father for Catherine, from Ahamlish Parish or nearby, or any other Inishmurray Hoyes.

Best wishes
I hope this will be of interest to someone.
Many thanks

Finally tracked down Mary Feenie's poor relief application. She was born in 1830 in the parish of Cuilbeg Co Sligo, daughter ofJames Feenie a labourer and Agnes Hart. She was married to Patrick Hoy in Ireland in 1850 by Rev Mr Callaghan. He died in West Drumcliff Co Sligo in about 1868. He was son of John Hoy a labourer and Bridget Carrott. Poor relief records are very sad, but sometimes really useful.

Not really a look up request but the names stood out to me, I have just started on this branch of my tree and I have Hoy/Hoey's from Sligo, specifically the Lissadil area.

My Great Great Grandfather was James Hoy born in Approx 1871 in Sligo it is this family, Bridget is my Great Grandmother.

One question I have is how does the Hoy \ Hoey work, is a English / Irish version of the same surname?

Hi..I am looking for Catherine Hoey from Sligo, who married Michael Redmond.  If anyone has any information, it would be greatly appreciated.  Not sure where in Sligo

When would the marriage have taken place? before or after 1864?

Added-
Is Molly Turley their daughter?

Or are they a much earlier couple with the same names? here's the death of a Michael C. Redmond, parents Michael Redmond & Catherine, but born c1846-

Hi. Thanks so much. I am not sure when they were married, but they did have a daughter Mary Brigid who was called Molly.  The 1st link with Molly is definitely the relation to the Catherine I am looking for. Looking for info on either Catherine hoey or Michael Redmond and where they were born.   Thanks.

If you could find the marriage or record of Molly/Mary coming to U.S. there might be a bit of a clue as to location in Ireland.

1920 census- Mendham, Morris, N.J.- Joseph Turley to U.S. 1907 and wife Mary to U.S. 1900 so looks like marriage might have taken place in N.J. (eldest son Joseph James Turley born 6 Aug.1914 Morristown, N.J.).
1930 census- Bernardsville, Somerset, N.J.- Joseph to U.S. 1921 (born Northern Ireland) and Mary to U.S. 1919 (unlikely to be correct in view of children born 1914 onwards in U.S.)
